  Why Ex-JWs Will Never Go From Door to Door

  by comforter in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  jehovah's witnesses proclaim the good news of the kingdom under the power of god's holy spirit.

  jesus commanded his followers to preach in the most distant parts of the earth and promised them that the spirit of god would guide them in this life-saving work (acts 1:8).. without the spirit of god, one cannot continue preaching about jesus and god's kingdom (matthew 24:14).

  one surely will not have god's spirit if one preaches a negative message (against jehovah's servants) from door to door.

  Comforter,

  Are you running from the discomfort that the issue of rampant exploitation of children within your cult causes you? Your cover is blown, you're just another dirtbag who supports the exploitation of children. Like other idiots who've tried unsuccessfully to defend the undefendable, you ignore valid issues that are presented to you as you have no answers or defense.

  I have no respect for those who engage in or approve of exploitation of children. You're just the gristle of life.

  Comforter,

  What about those who loathe going from door to door and do so only because they are coerced by their parents? You don't give a shit about these children, but you are sure proud to be part of an organization that benefits from and encourages their exploitation.

  I noticed your use of the word "it" when referring to children in your house. Do you consider them to be property, hence, your use of "it" to describe them? I guess that explains why you think it's OK to treat children as slaves. They don't have any rights or feelings, they are merely property to be exploited for the benefit of the Watchtower cult.

  As a person who is not only a member of the cult responsible for this exploitation of children, but one who now speaks in defense of this evil practice, you have lots to be ashamed of. Your cult has destroyed many lives and mentally damaged countless others. Some day, it will consume you too.

  Comforter,

  You claim that only "true christians" go from door to door, but what about exploited children who have the misfortune of being born into a family that is part of the JW cult? I slaved from door to door as a young child, but never believed in the bullshit that your cult forced down my throat. I was truly a slave, as I hated going from door to door and only did so under the duress of a severe beating for non-compliance. I terminated all my association with JWs at the age of 14, but paid the price for doing so.

  Your words make me feel like puking and I hope that if you have or someday have kids, you won't force them in any way to participate in this practice. It's a practice encouraged by your cult as they benefit from the marketing labor of children and could care less about the impact they have on the lives of innocent children. In fact, much of my resentment towards your cult is attributable to the exploitation I endured that benefitted the corporations that run your cult. Money could not compensate for the misery your cult inflicted upon my childhood.

  As for your comments about educating college grads, nice pipe dream. Got any extra of the stuff that gives you these delusions?

  does every issue of morality have to be compared with the thinking and teaching of jehovahs witnesses?

  simply because you are no longer jehovahs witnesses does that mean that you flaunt all moral authority and engaged in any perverted pleasure that you have a mind to?

  because your morality is no longer legislated by a pseudo religious organization does that give you license to engage in all acts of "immorality" and refer to it "as just having fun.

  Dutchie,

  Thanks for admitting that you were being judgmental. You certainly have the right to be judgmental, but if you say you aren't, then you should expect to hear some rebuttal. I was with you on your substance, just didn't like the accompanying attack on the morality of others that seemed to be somewhat behind your reasoning.

  Obviously, no one will agree on where the morality line ought to be placed, that's why we're lucky to have Simon to make that choice for us. From what I've seen, he's by no means been heavy-handed in this regard. Even if I were to disagree with him (which I don't), I would defer to and respect his judgment on these matters.

  BTW, Dutchie, I know you said no public disclosure of your photos, but how 'bout one via email just for me? LOL!

  Any time, Dutchie, except next time I think you'll need a better teacher as I don't think I got my point across.

  Dutchie,

  For your convenience, I've copied the definition of "degrade" from dictionary.com:

  degrade Pronunciation Key (d v.degraded,degrading,degrades v.tr. To reduce in grade, rank, or status; demote. To lower in dignity; dishonor or disgrace: a scandal that degraded the participants. To lower in moral or intellectual character; debase. To reduce in worth or value: degrade a currency. To impair in physical structure or function. Geology. To lower or wear by erosion or weathering. To cause (an organic compound) to undergo degradation. "Some circles" think murder is OK, but fortunately such thought has decreased in popularity in recent years. I find it hard to believe that any substantial non-incarcerated segment of society would view "degrading" as a compliment.

  I am not beig judgmental and I am not throwing stones. - - Dutchie

  Here's a recent example of "judgmental" communications from you (from this thread):

  Because your morality is no longer legislated by a pseudo religious organization does that give you license to engage in all acts of "immorality" and refer to it "as just having fun." Perhaps, if that is your nature. If you believe that the organization has so repressed your sexuality that you that in order to redeem yourselves you must act out in a common and degrading way, then that of course is your choice. - - Dutchie (emphasis added)

  Lifestyles you don't approve of are "common and degrading."

  Before you preach to others about respecting your freedom of thought, maybe you ought to respect others who exercise similar rights.

  Edited to add formatting.

  Ha ha, Moe!

  I like that, I'd also like to have some rotten fortunes for fortune cookies as well. Instead of the usual "something good will happen to you today," I'd like to see fortunes that said things like: "You're going to die today," or "as of today, your sex life is over." That way, when you got a good fortune, it would actually mean something to you.

  Oh well, back to my reading of the latest from Larry Flynt.

  i've spent a lot of time on allmusic.com and it amazes me how much nirvana is mentioned when the reviewers rate other albums.

  so its a no brainer that nirvana's work should probably have a place in every rock collection, but what are some other albums every rock fan should listen to if not own.

  Mentors. If you can find them (lead singer and heart of the band was killed by a train a couple years ago), any of their albums are good. Some of their better tracks include:

  Mentors, To the Max: "When You're Horny, You're Horny"

  Mentors, Up the Dose: "Secretary Hump," "Golden Showers," "Herpes 2," "Couch Test Casting," "SFCC (Suck and Fuck and Cook and Clean)," "Adultery"

  Mentors, You Axed For It: "Sandwich of Love"

  Mentors, Live at the Cathay De Grande: "My Woman From Sodom," "Peeping Tom," "Free Fix"
